EU prepares new sanctions targeting Russia's shadow fleet despite proposed Zelenskyy-Putin talks
- The EU is set to announce its seventeenth round of sanctions targeting Moscow’s covert fleet and entities supporting its military efforts in Ukraine on May 14, 2025.
- The sanctions build on 16 previous packages and address Russia's use of shadow tankers to bypass G7 oil price caps and support espionage activities.
- The 17th package will focus on Russian oil tankers, companies aiding sanctions evasion, and firms linked to the military-industrial complex, while future sanctions may address propaganda and human rights.
- French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot stated that without a ceasefire, the EU and the US will intensify their measures against Putin by imposing comprehensive sanctions.
- While peace talks between Zelenskyy and Putin may occur, EU officials confirmed sanction preparations continue independently and expect the package approval despite potential Hungarian concerns.
